Certainly, it's possible to do anything. However, for a person to be sick
enough to actually spend hours recovering personal data from a hard drive
which is of no beneficial value to him is beyond my imagination.
Note that I didn't specify the type of data nor the application that someone
might spend the time to try and recover the data. I can see we need to work
on your imagination :).
